3d Printer buddy 

Yeah but what will you use it for??? Please dont say printing 😅😅 

Will you make moulds with it?

[LiquidMetalsUK]

I mainly sand cast. which is casting from an object into delft clay. I will 3d print whatever I want to make. that model is then used to make my sand cast 

[LiquidMetalsUK]

for example 

the skull was cast in the sand with a 3d print. then the flask is closed on the other side and silver poured.

Ahh right.... very good (excellent work on the skull) and suppose the only limiting factor now is your imagination. 

Wish you very well with it.

Very well done, much nicer than my first amorphous blob!

Anyone ever tried pouring pre 1947 silver after melting it?

busy afternoon. starting to get bits ready for there journey up to sheffield Assay office. just poured blanks ready to be finshed off this weekend. Behind the scenes is never as exciting as finshed pieces but exciting for me and my little company to have my makers mark and full hallmark on my silver..

my registration and lazer hallmarking set up was £108 with vat. That's for a 10 year registration. Then charge per item to hallmark plus SD postage there and back
